Abstract

A system and method for sharing information, comprising: creating at least one problem-oriented record utilizing at least one modifier to describe at least one attribute of at least one problem; and utilizing the at least one problem-oriented record to share information.

Claims

1. A computerized method for sharing information, comprising:

creating, utilizing at least one information sharing application, at least one problem-oriented record utilizing at least one modifier to describe at least one attribute of at least one problem; and

sharing information related to the at least one problem-oriented record from the at least one information sharing application with at least one user utilizing at least one client and/or at least one server.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein problem-based pattern matching is performed utilizing the at least one problem-oriented record.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the information is medical information and the at least one problem is at least one medical problem.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the information is utilized by at least one provider and/or at least one patient.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein at least one user utilizes the at least one information sharing application to indicate at least one reason why at least one problem is created, resolved and/or prioritized.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one information sharing application alerts at least one user when new information is available of interest to the at least one user.

7. The method of claim 1, wherein the at least one sharing application shares the following information between users:

medical record information, device information, observations of daily living (ODL) information.

8. A computerized system for sharing information, comprising:

at least one server and/or at least one client coupled to a network;

at least one application coupled to the at least one server and/or the at least one client, the at least one application configured for;

creating, utilizing at least one information sharing application, at least one problem-oriented record utilizing at least one modifier to describe at least one attribute of at least one problem; and

sharing information related to the at least one problem-oriented record from the at least one information sharing application with at least one user utilizing at least one client and/or at least one server.

9. The system of claim 8, wherein problem-based pattern matching is performed utilizing the at least one problem-oriented record.

10. The system of claim 8, wherein the information is medical information and the at least one problem is at least one medical problem.

11. The system of claim 8, wherein the information is utilized by at least one provider and/or at least one patient.

12. The system of claim 8, wherein at least one user utilizes the at least one information sharing application to indicate at least one reason why at least one problem is created, resolved and/or prioritized.

13. The system of claim 8, wherein the at least one information sharing application alerts at least one user when new information is available of interest to the at least one user.

14. The system of claim 8, wherein the at least one sharing application shares the following information between users:

medical record information, device information, observations of daily living (ODL) information
